Disinvite Rachel Dolezal, Baltimore Book Festival 2017

Rachel Dolezal is the physical embodiment of cultural appropriation. The Baltimore Book Festival organizers and the Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts belie their disconnection from the black community and its allies by inviting a speaker to the Baltimore Book Festival who so offends and misrepresents the black community. Baltimore residents do not want Dolezal to have a platform in our city. Listen to the community that you purport to serve. Revoke your invitation--do not let Dolezal participate in this festival.
